Offer "writer mode" more explicitly

Some examples how the editor in Obsidian could be improved:

  • in serious writing html entity references are used like ‑ Non-Breaking Hyphen (U+2011) — however in live preview these are not rendered in real time
  • when writing inline math formulas, the current syntax highlighting doesn’t recognize spaces
  • Obsidian doesn’t support implicit GFM heading identifiers:

Some personal remarks about the editor:

  • The default image paste feature doesn’t generate new lines automatically similar to Insert → Table
  • how to exit in‑file search Cmd + F using keyboard (pressing the X) — one might think that pressing Esc is equivalent but Esc and X serve different purposes
